Frequently Asked Questions About Our Teen Rehab Program
At Guardian Recovery’s Montville Adolescent Center, we recognize parents have many questions about our teen rehab program, including concerns about insurance coverage, visitation policies, and educational support during treatment.
We’re committed to providing thorough answers about our facility’s amenities, such as semi-private rooms, family support services, and academic coordination with local schools to guarantee continued educational progress.
Through our experienced admissions team, we’ll guide you through insurance verification, explain our Sunday visitation protocols, and detail how we maintain close communication with families throughout their teenager’s recovery journey.
Does insurance cover treatment?
Yes, most insurance plans cover the costs of teen addiction treatment, thanks to federal regulations like the Affordable Care Act (ACA) and Mental Health Parity and Addiction Equity Act (MHPAEA).
We understand that managing insurance coverage for addiction treatment can feel overwhelming, which is why our admissions team is here to help verify your benefits and explain your coverage.
The ACA requires insurance providers to cover essential health benefits, including substance use disorder treatment, while the MHPAEA guarantees that mental health and addiction benefits aren’t limited unfairly.
We’ll work directly with your insurance company to determine exactly what’s covered, including detox services, residential treatment, and therapeutic programs.
Even if you don’t have insurance, we offer additional payment options and can discuss financial arrangements that work for your family.
Can I visit my teen while they’re in treatment?
Understanding the visitation process is a key concern for parents considering treatment for their teens. At Montville Adolescent Center, we’ve established structured visitation protocols that maintain both therapeutic progress and crucial family connections.
Our visitation hours take place on Sundays during designated times, and we require all visitors to be family members or guardians who are at least 18 years old.
Before any visits can occur, our clinical staff must approve potential visitors, and family members are required to participate in a Family Support Session. This careful screening process helps guarantee that visits positively contribute to your teen’s recovery journey, while our structured approach allows us to maintain the therapeutic environment that’s essential for successful treatment outcomes.
Do you offer support to family members?
Family support represents a cornerstone of our teen rehabilitation program, with multiple dedicated resources designed to help parents and loved ones through this challenging journey.
We’ve developed extensive family therapy sessions, educational workshops, and support groups that address the complexities of addiction’s impact on the entire family unit. Through our structured family program, we teach essential communication skills, boundary-setting techniques, and coping strategies that strengthen family dynamics and support long-term recovery.
Our family support services include regular progress updates, weekly therapy sessions, and educational materials that help parents understand their teen’s treatment journey.
Additionally, we provide resources for managing post-treatment changes, connecting families with community support networks, and developing practical strategies for maintaining healthy family relationships throughout the recovery process.
What educational coordination is offered?
While supporting families remains a key priority, our educational coordination services guarantee teens stay on track academically during treatment. We partner directly with each client’s home school district to verify attendance credits and maintain curriculum alignment, dedicating two hours daily to structured academic pursuits and physical education activities.
Our extensive academic support includes coordinating with teachers and guidance counselors to collect assignments, administering tests, and providing progress updates.
We recognize that maintaining educational momentum is vital for long-term success, which is why we’ve designed our program to seamlessly integrate academic requirements with therapeutic activities.
Through our structured approach, we make certain that teens can shift back to their regular academic environment without falling behind, while still fully engaging in their recovery journey.
Will my teenager have their own room?
Room arrangements at Montville Adolescent Center include both private and semi-private options for our teen residents.
We’ve designed our accommodations with comfort and recovery in mind, guaranteeing each space provides a safe, therapeutic environment that supports healing and personal growth.
While we can’t assure private rooms for every resident, we carefully consider each teen’s specific needs, clinical requirements, and treatment goals when making room assignments.
Our semi-private rooms typically house two residents, which often proves beneficial as it helps develop socialization skills and peer support during the recovery journey.
In all cases, we maintain gender-specific housing floors and strict supervision protocols to guarantee your teenager’s safety and comfort throughout their stay at our facility.
Do you prescribe medications?
At Montville Adolescent Center, we take a thorough and collaborative approach to medication management. Before making any changes or prescribing new medications, we’ll discuss all options with parents or guardians to guarantee informed decisions about their teen’s treatment plan.
For teens who already have a psychiatrist or primary care provider managing their medications, we’ll need a signed Release of Information (ROI) form to coordinate care effectively.
This allows us to verify previous treatment protocols and communicate any medication adjustments that may occur during their stay with us. Through this coordinated approach, we can guarantee a seamless shift of care and maintain consistent communication with your teen’s existing healthcare providers, which is essential for post-treatment success and ongoing medication management.
Are there rules my teen must abide by while in treatment?
Beyond medication management, our teen treatment program maintains clear behavioral expectations and guidelines to create a safe, structured healing environment.
We require all clients to follow our established rules, which include maintaining sobriety, attending all scheduled therapy sessions and academic programming, respecting staff and peers, and adhering to designated quiet hours.
Additionally, we enforce strict policies regarding personal electronics, appropriate dress code, and prohibited items to guarantee focus on recovery.
While in treatment, teens must participate actively in their recovery process, complete assigned therapeutic work, and maintain appropriate boundaries with fellow residents.
Our structured environment helps adolescents develop essential life skills, including responsibility, accountability, and respect for themselves and others, while providing the support they need for successful recovery.
Are there any benefits to sending my teenager out of state for care?
Sending your teenager to an out-of-state treatment facility offers several strategic advantages for their recovery journey. At Montville Adolescent Center, we’ve found that physical distance from familiar triggers and negative influences often enhances the therapeutic process, allowing teens to focus entirely on their recovery without local distractions.
The geographical separation also helps break unhealthy patterns and relationships that may have contributed to substance use.
Additionally, we’ve observed that our out-of-state clients benefit from a fresh environment where they can develop new perspectives and coping strategies without the pressure of local peer influences.
For many families, choosing our New Jersey location provides the ideal balance of accessibility and separation, as we’re conveniently located within 45 minutes of Manhattan while offering enough distance to support meaningful change.
How do I get started?
Starting the admission process for your teen is straightforward and can be completed in just three simple steps.
First, contact our admissions team, who’ll conduct a brief 10-minute pre-assessment over the phone to guarantee we’re the right fit for your child’s specific needs.
Next, we’ll verify your insurance benefits and discuss payment options, helping you understand the coverage available for your teen’s treatment at Montville Adolescent Center.
Finally, once we’ve confirmed these details, we’ll schedule an intake appointment that works with your family’s schedule.
Throughout this process, our dedicated admissions counselors will guide you, answer any questions you might’ve about our program, and guarantee a smooth shift into our care, where your teen will receive the personalized support they need.
